A chaotic house, a perfect couple

Chapter 38 Fishing in This Way

The group went to the outskirts of the city in a mighty procession. They didn't need to take the bus, they could just walk there.

After all, a fare of one cent is not cheap for ordinary employees. Most people would rather walk a few more steps than spend this money in vain.

This generation is very hard-working.

Cheng Jiajia and Yu Junsheng, the two who couldn't stand hardship, wanted to take a car, but everyone else wanted to walk, and they couldn't stand out, so they had to set off on foot with everyone.

Fortunately, everyone was chatting and laughing, so they didn't feel very tired.

Cheng Jiajia and his wife walked together with Aunt Hao and Aunt Cao, chatting as they walked.

The puddle that Aunt Hao mentioned was actually hidden on a hillside, surrounded by dense weeds and trees. It was so tightly surrounded that most people would not notice it.

Cheng Jiajia was as sweet as ever, "Thanks to Aunt Hao, otherwise we wouldn't have known that we could catch fish in this horn."

"That's right. It's thanks to your generosity and kindness, Aunt Hao, otherwise you wouldn't have told us this good news." Yu Junsheng also flattered her.

They were telling the truth. If it were them, they would just sneak over and catch the fish themselves, and at most give a few fish to a few close neighbors, but they would not be so generous as to tell the people in the yard.

"Aunt Hao, you are truly selfless. You are worthy of being the wife of the man who manages the courtyard. We can't compare to your vision!"

The couple kept talking to each other, praising each other like they were free, which made Aunt Hao smile.

"Oh, you two are talking so sweetly that I feel embarrassed. I just thought that we can't catch all the fish by ourselves, so it's better to let everyone come together so that everyone can have a taste of the meat." This can also increase the old man's prestige. There have been too many bad things in the yard recently!

"I came here with others. This place is hidden deep. Even when we came here before, we were at the foot of the mountain. Who knew there was such a big puddle here?"

Aunt Hao was beaming. "Let me tell you, the fish in that puddle have probably never been discovered before. They're all so stupid, you can catch one at a time. We need to catch more later, rub salt on them and make salted fish so we can eat them until the New Year."

Cheng Jiajia affectionately took Aunt Hao's arm and said, "Yu Junsheng and I don't know how to catch fish. You must teach us later!"

Anyway, I can't do it, and Yu Junsheng probably can't do it either, right?

Aunt Hao patted her chest and assured, "Well, it's no big deal! I guessed you wouldn't be able to do it! When the time comes, just watch how Qingshu does it and learn from him. If that doesn't work, ask them to help you!"

Zou Qingshu is Aunt Hao's youngest son. After graduation, he also works in a machinery factory. He is a single young man. This time, Aunt Hao brought him along when she went fishing.

Of course, she was mainly here to do the labor and carry things. An old lady like her couldn't carry things such a long distance.

Zou Qingshu, who was left unconsciously, said: "..."

"Aunt Hao, you are so kind!"

"Brother Qingshu is amazing, Yu Junsheng can't even catch fish!"

"Junsheng grew up in the city and never had the chance to fish. My naughty boy used to go into the water a lot at his grandmother's house, and that's how he got trained. He got beaten a lot for it..."

The couple, one holding Aunt Hao's left hand and the other holding her right arm, one on each side, are more like her own sons than her own sons.

Zou Qingshu, his biological son who was pushed aside: "..."

Zou Qingshu curled his lips and whispered, "Flatterer!"

Yu Junsheng was originally a flatterer, and now he married a flatterer wife, which is even more outrageous.

Look how those two people coaxed his mother, she almost forgot who her own son was.

Yu Junsheng had sharp ears and happened to hear it. He raised his eyebrows and suddenly asked Zou Qingshu loudly, "Qingshu, I heard that Aunt Hao has been looking for a partner for you recently. How is it going? When can we attend your wedding?"

Zou Qingshu's face turned dark. It was intentional, it must have been intentional!

This flatterer is deliberately bringing up things that are not related to the topic!

Recently, his mother has been arranging blind dates for him crazily, up to three a day. He doesn't dare to refuse, so he has to go on the dates obediently.

But for some reason, those women left angrily before they could say a few words.

His mother kept nagging him about this, and he was almost annoyed to death.

Sure enough, I heard his mother say angrily, "This blockhead, every time I introduce a lesbian to him, he gets mad and leaves. He really pissed me off!"

Zou Qingshu refused to accept the situation and stiffened his neck, saying, "It's clearly those women's fault. They got angry when I was just talking to them. It's totally inexplicable! Mom, why did you introduce such weird people to me?"

Aunt Hao glared at him with disappointment, then changed her expression.

She patted Yu Junsheng's hand lovingly, "You're the best, Junsheng. You can find a partner on your own. If Qingshu could talk and make a female comrade happy like you, I wouldn't have to worry so much!"

Zou Qingshu: “…”

He felt that he was being excluded and felt wronged!

Yu Junsheng raised his eyebrows proudly when he saw this. He wanted to fight with him, huh!

Cheng Jiajia suppressed a laugh, "Why are you bullying him?"

"How did I bully him? I just care about him." Yu Junsheng looked sincere.

The corners of Cheng Jiajia's mouth twitched. "Why do I feel like he doesn't really need your concern?"

Yu Junsheng said without blinking, "That means he doesn't know what's good for him."

Zou Qingshu: "...Thank you!"

Zou Qingshu was so depressed that he stopped talking.

How come he couldn't win an argument with Yu Junsheng?!

"You made me angry."

"It's okay."

Although Yu Junsheng and Zou Qingshu like to bicker with each other, they actually have a good relationship.

The two grew up together and were in the same class. Zou Qingshu was one of the few friends Yu Junsheng could get along with in the compound. It was unlikely that they would get angry over such a small matter.

After a while, Cheng Jiajia poked Yu Junsheng again, "Have you been here before?"

"Why haven't I come? When there was a famine and we couldn't fill our stomachs, I often came here with my mother and the aunts in the compound. It was only in recent years that my mother passed away, so I stopped coming here alone." Speaking of this, Yu Junsheng felt a little emotional.

Seeing that he was a little sad, Cheng Jiajia took his hand and comforted him softly, "Let's live a good life. Mom will feel relieved when she sees it."

At least this body of his still has a adoptive mother, but Yu Junsheng's parents are both dead and he has no other relatives.

"From now on, we will be each other's family. We will have children in the future, so you won't be alone."

When Yu Junsheng saw the heartache in Cheng Jiajia's eyes, his heart felt like it was being gently scratched by a feather, making it itchy and making him feel sore in his eyes.

He flicked her forehead as if to cover up, and said deliberately in a nonchalant manner, "Silly girl, never feel sorry for a man, understand?"

"Ouch!" Cheng Jiajia covered her forehead and glared at him, "Are you sick?!"

The heartache disappeared instantly, and Cheng Jiajia's fists clenched so hard that they made a crackling sound.

"If you want to die, just say so!"

Yu Junsheng's back stiffened.

Oops, how could he forget that his wife is a super strong woman?!

He laughed twice, "Haha, haha..."

He quickly changed the subject and said, "Wife, there are many kinds of wild vegetables and mushrooms here. I will bring you here to play later."

Cheng Jiajia's eyes lit up, and she immediately stopped being angry. "There are still mushrooms here?"

She loves picking mushrooms. She watched a lot of videos in her past life, and now she can finally experience it herself?!

Yu Junsheng saw through her thoughts immediately and said with a smile, "What are you thinking about? What time is it now? It won't be available until the beginning of next spring."

"Then remember to bring me to pick mushrooms next year!"

"Okay, I tell you, there are a lot of mushrooms on this mountain. I'll take you here to broaden your horizons..."

The two heads that were angry just now came together again and whispered to each other, occasionally smiling at each other, and pink bubbles kept appearing between them, which made people feel sad.

Zou Qingshu automatically stayed away from the two of them to avoid accidentally eating dog food.

……

Bai Xiaohui glanced jealously at the flirting couple in front of her, bahed, and cursed softly, "Shameless! Vixen! No shame!"

Then she looked at Qin Ziwen beside her with resentment, "Brother Ziwen, I'm so thirsty, can you lend me some of your water?"

Qin Ziwen said coldly, "We're almost there. Xiaohui, hold on a little longer. There's a lot of water in the puddle."

Bai Xiaohui: "..."

Who wants to drink the dirty water in there? !

She said pitifully, "Brother Ziwen, I'm really thirsty and can't hold on any longer. Can you lend me your water bottle to drink a few sips?"

Qin Ziwen remained unmoved: "I've run out of water too. How about I borrow some from Uncle Guo and the others?"

Bai Xiaohui: "..."

Who wants to drink that old stingy man’s water? I’m afraid that old stingy man would charge her for even a sip.

Qin Ziwen quickly interrupted Bai Xiaohui and said sincerely, "Uncle Guo, Xiaohui is very thirsty, and there is no water on the road. Please help me. We are all neighbors."

Don't think he doesn't know what this fickle woman is up to.

In fact, Qin Ziwen never thought about marrying Bai Xiaohui.

He is an officer of the Propaganda Department, and he must marry a woman who can help his career in the future, and it cannot be an unemployed young person like Bai Xiaohui.

In the past, he only allowed Bai Xiaohui to follow him because she was good-looking, well-behaved and sensible.

Now that Ren Yongsheng has been added to my life, he still wants to continue following me. What a wishful thinking!

Who does she think she is?!

After hearing this, Grandpa Guo glanced at Bai Xiaohui who was glaring at him, rolled his eyes, and then a mysterious smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. "How about this, for the sake of our old neighbor, I will be kind and not ask for much from you, just a penny for two bites. How about it?"

Bai Xiaohui: “!!!”

"What?! Two bites for a penny?!"

Although she had no intention of drinking Guo Laokouer's water, she was still shocked by his shamelessness.

"How about it? Affordable, right? You can drink a little bigger, it's okay." Uncle Guo looked like you were getting a good deal.

Bai Xiaohui was so angry that she cursed without thinking:

"Why don't you just go and rob me? You're charging me a penny for just two sips of water, and you're our old neighbor! Pah! I think you're obsessed with money, aren't you?!"

Uncle Guo's face darkened, and he glared at the ungrateful Bai Xiaohui, "You little bitch, you have no manners at all. I don't know how your mother taught you!"

"Forget it if you don't want it! I won't lend it to you anymore!"

As he said this, he carried the kettle and went to the front to find his wife.

Bai Xiaohui's eyes instantly turned red, and she looked at Qin Ziwen aggrievedly, "Brother Ziwen, how could this old man scold me like that?"

Qin Ziwen frowned and said disapprovingly, "Xiaohui, you're thirsty, and Uncle Guo was kind enough to lend you some water. It's fine if you don't appreciate it, but how can you say that to him? People will only think you're ungrateful."

"Also, no matter what, Uncle Guo is still our elder. We can't be so rude. People will say we are uneducated."

After saying that, Qin Ziwen ignored her and strode straight ahead.

Bai Xiaohui was stunned and stood there looking at Qin Ziwen's back with tears in her eyes.

Don't know what's good for you?!

No education?!

Brother Ziwen would never say this about himself before. Does he still care about me leaving him for a short time to go for a ride with Ren Yongsheng?

But she was just curious about the new bike!

Why can't Brother Ziwen understand her? !

Cheng Jiajia and Yu Junsheng had sharp ears and heard everything clearly, and they both tried to hold back their laughter.

Cheng Jiajia asked curiously again, "Do you think he's taking revenge on Bai Xiaohui for going to see Ren Yongsheng a few days ago?"

"Can these two still work out?"

Yu Junsheng snorted, "Who knows? But this kid is no pushover either!"

……

The group finally reached a puddle halfway up the mountain, and everyone looked in amazement at the schools of fish swimming in the water.

"Fuck, this is too much!"

"This must have been undiscovered before, and it's been cultivated for many years, so there are so many fish."

Everyone rolled up their sleeves and started working.

The weather in the north city in late autumn was already very cold, and no one knew the depth of the puddle, so no one dared to go into the water. They all stood on the shore and used nets to catch fish.

Cheng Jiajia and Yu Junsheng quickly watched how Zou Qingshu moved and followed his lead to learn.

Aunt Cao and Uncle Guo each held a net bag, and they looked at the fish swimming in the puddle with a hint of excitement on their faces.

Uncle Guo: "We've made a profit! With so many fish, we must catch more. This will save us a lot of money!"

Aunt Cao: "It's a pity we didn't bring a few more backpacks."

Uncle Guo scooped up a medium-sized black fish with his net. He was overjoyed and said, "Old lady, old lady, quickly bring the basket!"

Qin Ziwen next to him also caught a big fish.

Aunt Yan was so excited that she wanted to jump down and put all the fish in her basket. "Third brother, we must catch more fish. We can send some to your uncle's house later."

Qin Ziwen paused in his action of scooping the net bag and said, "Mom, I understand." Qin Ziwen agreed readily, but in his heart he wanted to tell his father when he got home.

His mother has no say over the fish at home.

Bai Xiaohui bit her lip as she watched Qin Ziwen and Aunt Yan concentrating on catching fish.

She approached Qin Ziwen several times along the way, but unfortunately Qin Ziwen was neither cold nor indifferent, which made Bai Xiaohui very frustrated.

How can they improve their relationship like this?

At this time, Bai Xiaohui regretted not asking her mother to come over, because her mother had many more ways than her.

If her mother were here, she would definitely know what to do.

Over there, Cheng Jiajia was scooping in a puddle with a net bag when she suddenly twisted her body and staggered. Fortunately, Yu Junsheng caught her quickly, otherwise she would have fallen into the water.

Yu Junsheng helped Cheng Jiajia sit on a rock nearby, and kept asking about her health, fearing that Cheng Jiajia was hurt.

When Bai Xiaohui saw this scene, she suddenly had an idea.

She pretended to walk to Qin Ziwen unintentionally, and paddled in the water with her own net bag. Suddenly, her body twisted, and she cried out "ouch", and was about to fall sideways into Qin Ziwen's arms like Cheng Jiajia did.

But at the critical moment, a piece of wooden stick suddenly appeared beside her, and the handle hit her with a "bang".

With a "splash", she fell directly into the puddle.

"what!"

Everyone on the shore: "!!!"

Uncle Guo: “!!!”

Uncle Guo was dumbfounded and said in a panic, "She fell in by herself. I didn't push her!"
